The merit exchange hall became extremely quiet, and you could hear a needle drop. Everyone focused their attention on Zhang Ruochen, and time and space seemed to stand still at this moment.
"It's only 3.5 billion merit points. Compared with the previous ones, the gap is really big."
Zhang Ruochen sighed slightly and shook his head, not satisfied with the current merit value.
There are a total of 183,673 people on the merit list of the Saint Kings of the Heavenly Realm. The four major worlds plus the Hundred Worlds account for the majority. Few people from other worlds can be on the list.
For example, from Guanghan Realm, before Zhang Ruochen, there was only one person on the list, and the ranking was not very high, but that person had already exhausted all the efforts of Guanghan Realm.
With the merit points Zhang Ruochen currently possesses, he can only be ranked after ten thousand people. He is far away from the first place on the merit list of the Holy King, which is a thousand miles away.
Being among the top 10,000 on the Saint King's Merit List is a hurdle. It's not easy to get over. The merit points often reach four to five billion points.
According to the rules of the Temple of Merit, anyone who can enter the top 10,000 on the Holy King's Merit List will receive huge benefits and receive a large amount of merit energy to baptize their body and holy soul.
If you can get into the top one thousand, one hundred or even the top ten, the benefits will be even greater and it will be difficult for anyone to resist.
In fact, many people who rank high on the Saint King's Merit List have been able to break through to the Great Saint Realm long ago, but they have always suppressed their cultivation.
There are simply three reasons. One is to cross the tenth level of the Sea of Truth and obtain the supreme opportunity; the other is to play a big role in the merit battlefield, which is an important trump card for the heavenly world to dominate the merit battlefield; the third reason is that it can play a big role in the merit battlefield.
It is the Temple of Merit that will provide great benefits, benefits that ordinary people cannot even imagine.
Unfortunately, it is too difficult to get into the top of the Saint King's merit list.
Nie Xiangzi, one of the ten divine disciples of the Temple of Truth whom Zhang Ruochen knew, was already the most powerful man under the Great Sage more than a hundred years ago. He had accumulated a huge amount of merit and was only ranked on the merit list of the Holy King.
Ninety-third, worthy of being squeezed into the top 100.
Most of those at the top were pushed by the big forces who devoted all their efforts to push them up.
If you really have to rely on yourself, there is almost no hope of getting to the front.
Just like Zhang Ruochen's sudden gain of 3.5 billion merit points this time, it was also the result of the combined efforts of many people. He was not the only one to kill so many undead vampires.
"Zhang Ruochen, have you really wiped out all the undead vampire army that besieged Pluto's Sword Tomb?"
A female monk asked.
Hearing this voice, Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but come back to his senses and turned around and said: "Shouldn't it be right? You all go to the Merit Battlefield, doesn't the Kunlun Realm also need someone to protect it? I am timid and don't dare to go to the Merit Battlefield.
, we can only stay in the Kunlun Realm and wait for the monks from the Hell Realm to come to our door."
Hearing this, many people couldn't help showing extremely embarrassed expressions, wanting to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
Previously, they were all mocking Zhang Ruochen for being a coward and not daring to go to the merit battlefield.
Now that Zhang Ruochen said these words, he was undoubtedly responding to them.
If they are considered cowards to destroy hundreds of thousands of undead vampires, then what are they?
"It is said that the Undead Vampire Clan dispatched five sons of gods, seven sons and daughters of emperors, and invited the underworld immortals from the Nether Clan to help. Did you really kill them all?" The female monk who just asked the question asked again.
Obviously, she knows a lot of inside information, even the Underworld Immortal and the Blood-Slaying Son of God know about it.
It was precisely because of this that she felt unbelievable.
How could Zhang Ruochen and the Zhenyu Ancient Clan deal with so many extremely powerful people?
Not to mention other people, it feels like just one Blood Slaughter God Son is enough to break through the Sword Tomb.
There is also the Underworld Immortal, whose formations and curses are very terrifying, and he also has the ability to destroy the sword tomb.
Zhang Ruochen smiled slightly and said: "Since you are so well-informed, why do you need to ask me about these things?"
Turning his eyes, Zhang Ruochen looked at King Daxi and said with a smile: "Fairy Lianxi, long time no see. The fairy's style is still the same, which makes me miss her so much. Last time, the fairy left in a hurry, but she left behind this shadowless robe. , now it returns to its original owner.”
As he spoke, a transparent treasured garment with a faint light appeared in his hand, and slowly flew towards the Great Xi King.
King Daxi stretched out his hand to catch Wuying Tianyi, his eyes were slightly startled, obviously he did not expect Zhang Ruochen to come like this.
On the side, a cold light flashed in Shang Ziyan's eyes, and he couldn't help but clench the hand behind his back.
At this time, Zhang Ruochen turned his gaze, with a very provocative smile in his eyes.
The next moment, he smiled again and said to King Daxi: "Fairy Lianxi, you are welcome to come to the Eastern Region as a guest at any time. Let me show you the friendship of a landlord and show you the scenery of the Eastern Region. I have other things to do, so I will not accompany the fairy."
After saying that, Zhang Ruochen gave King Da Xi a meaningful smile, then turned and left.
"Uh-huh."
Many people turned their attention to King Da Xi, with strange looks in their eyes.
As far as they knew, Zhang Ruochen and Shang Ziyan were on the same page, so King Da Xi should also have a hostile relationship with Zhang Ruochen.
Judging from the meaning of Zhang Ruochen's words just now, it is clear that he has an unusual relationship with King Daxi, which is undoubtedly very strange.
"Your Highness the Goddess, between you and Zhang Ruochen..." Sihan looked confused.
King Da Xi reacted, glared at Si Han, and said coldly: "There is no relationship between Zhang Ruochen and I. Can't you see that he is sowing discord?"
Si Hanlian closed his mouth, not daring to say anything more.
In fact, he also had doubts in his mind. Last time, he easily rescued King Xi from Zhang Ruochen, but Zhang Ruochen never tried to intercept him. Moreover, he found that there was no restriction on King Xi at that time, at least the mental power of King Da Xi was It can be used.
Based on his understanding of Zhang Ruochen, Zhang Ruochen is decisive in killing and never shows mercy to others. Why would he treat King Daxi differently?
Could it be that there is really something between King Daxi and Zhang Ruochen?
"Ziyan, you don't believe Zhang Ruochen's words, do you?" King Daxi looked at Shang Ziyan.
Shang Ziyan smiled and said: "Of course not. How can I not see through Zhang Ruochen's little tricks?"
But when he said these words, a few rays of strange light flashed in his eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
"Brother Ziyan, do you want to take this opportunity to kill Zhang Ruochen?" Si Han said to Shang Ziyan in a low voice with a gloomy face.
Before Shang Ziyan could speak, King Daxi had already stopped him and said: "It's best not to act rashly. Zhang Ruochen can destroy hundreds of thousands of undead vampires. He must have some powerful trump cards. If he takes action rashly, we will probably suffer a huge loss." deficit."
"He has a trump card, don't we? Now that he is the only one, it is the best opportunity to make a move. As long as he leaves the Merit Station, we can kill him with the power of thunder." Sihan didn't think so at all. Meaning.
Even after knowing that Zhang Ruochen could completely wipe out hundreds of thousands of the Immortal Vampire Clan's army, he still didn't take Zhang Ruochen seriously and felt that Zhang Ruochen could be killed.
"You underestimate Zhang Ruochen too much. He is far more difficult to deal with than you think." King Da Xi shook his head.
Sihan frowned and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness the Goddess, you always speak for Zhang Ruochen. Is there really any relationship between you and him?"
"How dare you doubt me like this? Zhang Ruochen is Zi Yan's enemy, and that is my enemy. This will never change."
King Daxi scolded him coldly.
If it weren't for Sihannai being a top powerhouse in the soul world with a great background, she would never have given him another chance to speak.
Shang Ziyan spoke at the right time and said: "Okay, there is no need to be angry. Sihan just doesn't want to waste a great opportunity. However, there is no need to rush to attack Zhang Ruochen now. There will be a battle sooner or later between me and him, and I will let him
There is no chance of turning around again.”
Anyone can feel that he has an unparalleled aura and is extremely confident in his own strength.
After taking a deep look at Zhang Ruochen's retreating figure, Shang Ziyan turned around and walked out of the merit exchange hall.
He will continue to go to the merit battlefield to kill monks from the hell realm, accumulate merit points, and surpass Zhang Ruochen.
No matter what, he must not fall behind Zhang Ruochen.
King Daxi was also staring at Zhang Ruochen's back, his eyes were quite complicated. This feeling of being controlled by others was very bad.
She must find a way to get back a few important things from Zhang Ruochen, especially the mysterious soul jade that is related to her subsequent cultivation. If she doesn't get it back, she will not be able to break through to the Great Saint Realm.
If not, why should she be controlled by Zhang Ruochen?
Seeing Shang Ziyan and others leaving, those who had gathered to watch the excitement also dispersed.
They really saw the excitement this time, but it was different from what they expected.
After getting rid of Shang Ziyan and others, Zhang Ruochen came to the merit treasure exchange place.
There are no staff here, so you need to redeem merit treasures by yourself.
Merit treasures are extremely precious, and each one requires a large amount of merit points to redeem.
"Golden elixirs of merit, weapons of merit, spiritual objects of merit... there are so many types, and they are all good things." Looking at the various introductions about merit treasures, Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Merit elixirs are elixirs refined from the energy of merit. There are many kinds with different effects. Some can improve your cultivation, some can improve your physique, some can increase your longevity, etc. Each of them has different effects.
They are extremely valuable and cannot be purchased anywhere.
Merit weapons are weapons forged with the energy of merit and are powerful. For example, the merit seal once used by Shang Ziyan is a powerful merit weapon.
As for the merit spiritual objects, they are some auxiliary objects. For example, the merit sword marrow obtained by Ling Feiyu falls into this category. It can be used to refine the sword soul and has extraordinary effects.
"A small bottle of merit-washing sword marrow requires 10 million merit points to exchange for it. It's really expensive." Looking at the merit values corresponding to the merit treasures, Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but secretly marveled.
Merit Cleansing Sword Marrow is a consumable item. If a sword cultivator wants to refine his sword soul to an extremely strong state, he will need to consume a lot of it.
Merit is hard-earned and should not be squandered casually.
After careful consideration, Zhang Ruochen chose to exchange some merit treasures, not only for himself, but also for everyone around him.
Everyone worked hard to guard the Sword Tomb, and the merit points obtained in exchange were exchanged for successful virtue treasures. Naturally, he would not keep it alone.
"Have you heard? The seal of Xianji Mountain in the Northern Territory has been further broken, and a large number of dead people have poured into the Kunlun Realm. Everywhere they passed, life was extinct, and many cities have turned into dead cities."
"Your news is too late. Just three days ago, the Xingxiu Sect was besieged by the dead tribe and suffered heavy casualties. However, the Xingxiu Cult was ruthless enough and used the star control technique to destroy a large number of the dead tribe, so that the dead tribe had to choose to retreat; only
This battle has severely damaged the Xingxiu Sect’s vitality, and they have already announced that the mountain gate will be closed.”
"The Xingxiu Sect, as one of the seven ancient sects in the Kunlun Realm, has a profound foundation, but it can be defeated so easily. The dead clan is really terrifying."
"I also heard the news that just yesterday, Pei Yutian alone entered a city occupied by the dead and sank the city. I don't know how many dead people were killed; some people saw Pei Yutian covered in blood.
, fell off a cliff, not knowing whether he would live or die."
"The Shura clan appeared in the southern region, and a fierce battle broke out with the army of the First Empire in the center of the Kunlun Realm. The king of fighting in the imperial court fell, and the King of Killing suffered heavy losses; the Fire clan was breached and almost suffered annihilation."
"The situation in the East Region is even worse. The zombie clan and ghost clan are attacking fiercely. The merit battlefield there has long been turned into a purgatory. Many powerful people have lost their lives there. Many top sixth-level ghost kings and top zombie kings,
It has entered the Kunlun realm, established a stronghold, and advanced step by step, almost turning the Eastern Region into a piece of gloom."
"However, two days ago, Queen Chi Yao's weapon, the Blood-Drip Sword, appeared. The sword shone with cold light across the Nine Provinces, killing the two divine sons of the Shura tribe. The Shura tribe was retreating steadily, allowing the imperial army to stabilize its position."
"The current situation in Kunlun Realm is becoming more and more complicated. There are many powerful characters coming to both the Heaven Realm and the Hell Realm. I feel that the Kunlun Realm is really doomed."
…………
Just as Zhang Ruochen was exchanging merit treasures, some voices of discussion suddenly came to his ears.
After hearing this news, Zhang Ruochen's expression became solemn.
The situation in the Kunlun Realm is so bad. Both the Hell Realm and the Heaven Realm want to carve up the Kunlun Realm. It is really difficult to survive the disaster and survive.
If the Kunlun Realm can be given more time to prepare, and when the Kunlun Realm fully recovers and a large number of strong men are born, the situation will not be so difficult.
"It seems that we must rush to Xianji Mountain as soon as possible. The situation in the northern region is too complicated. If we go too late, the trunk of the sacred tree will fall into the hands of others." Zhang Ruochen thought to himself.
After putting away all the merit treasures, Zhang Ruochen immediately returned along the road without further delay at the merit station.
As he expected, someone was following behind, but it was not Shang Zixuan and others, which made him a little disappointed.
If Shang Ziyan and others dare to follow him, he will definitely make it impossible for them to come back.
As for the other people who followed, it was mostly to investigate the situation.
As long as these people don't come to provoke him, he doesn't bother to get to know them.
In the Sword Tomb Palace, Zhang Ruochen immediately called everyone together to distribute the various merit treasures exchanged.
He did not favor one over the other. Bao Lie, Ji Fanxin, Xiang Chunan, Murong Yue and others were all involved. Even Luo Yi had a share, and every merit treasure was targeted.
In addition, the Zhenyu Ancient Clan was also allocated a portion of the merit treasures, but because there were too many of them, it was not possible for everyone to share, and it was left to Shi Qiankun to distribute them.
"Uncle Master, we can't go to the North Territory with you. Master asked us to go to the Earth Temple. There are some important things to do." Da Sikong said.
Zhang Ruochen knew that the master of the Earth Temple was called the Living Bodhisattva, and presumably had some relationship with Buddhism. Master Indra must have had a deep meaning in letting Da Sikong and Er Sikong go to the Earth Temple.
"Your Highness, I also want to go back to the Murong family to help our ancestors." Murong Yue also said.
Bao Lie also spoke at this time: "Junior brother, I plan to go to the Central Region to investigate the situation of several senior brothers. If you need me, please send me a message at any time, and I will rush to you as quickly as possible."
"Zhang Ruochen, I have nothing to do with you. I can follow you to the Northern Territory." The wonderful little Taoist said with a smile.
But Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said: "No, you have to stay here. Although the undead blood clan has been temporarily defeated, I don't think they will give up easily, so I hope you stay here to help suppress the ancient clan and restore the ancient gods."
Pattern to guard against another attack by the undead vampires."
"You are running around, leaving this poor Taoist here to do hard labor." The wonderful little Taoist curled his lips, obviously not happy.
Shen Jia, the head of the Shen family, stood up and said with a smile: "I would also like to ask senior to stay and help suppress the ancient clan. I am willing to hand over the "Star Dou Tu" to senior for understanding."
""Star Map", good stuff, well, since you are so sincere, Pindao will stay temporarily to help you."
The wonderful little Taoist's eyes lit up and he immediately changed his mind.
